The Madrid boss hailed his star attacker's achievement and praised his form ahead of a match against Sporting Gijon

Zinedine Zidane described Cristiano Ronaldo as "amazing" and hailed the Real Madrid forward's continued motivation after he made more history with his double against Bayern Munich.

Ronaldo became the first player to reach 100 goals in UEFA competitions in Madrid's 2-1 Champions League quarter-final first-leg win away to Bayern Munich on Wednesday.

Speaking ahead of Madrid's LaLiga match away to Sporting Gijon on Saturday – where Zidane's men will look to move six points clear of Barcelona ahead of their rivals' home match with Real Sociedad – the head coach praised his star man.
